About the Watch

Lu Yuan chimed in.

"That's right, sister-in-law. They gave you tons of stuff—useful items, food, and even rewards!" Lu Yuan said admiringly.

The moment Lin Nannan heard there were benefits, she lit up immediately.

"What did they give?"

"Eat first!" Grandma Lu explained. "Apart from perishable items, everything else is in your room. You can check after dinner!"

"Oh!" Lin Nannan responded obediently.

Since they had returned unexpectedly, the family hadn’t prepared much. Zhang Xiaofeng made a pot of homestyle noodles, which didn’t look particularly appealing. But for them, who had endured train food for so long, the noodles with eggs tasted like heaven.

Each of them wolfed down huge bowls, eating messily but breaking Grandma Lu’s heart...

"Eat more! There’s still more in the pot. If it’s not enough, I’ll make more!" Zhang Xiaofeng said with concern.

They could all tell the two had lost weight—this trip really wore them out.

But they didn’t ask. Everyone knew Lu Hang’s mission was hush-hush, so questioning would be pointless. They simply dropped it.

"It’s enough," Lin Nannan said after swallowing a mouthful. "Mom, we weren’t starving, just the food on the train wasn’t as good as home."

"Then tell me what you’d like to eat, and I’ll buy it for you tomorrow!" Zhang Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"Meat!" Lin Nannan shot back instantly. "Braised meat!"

Zhang Xiaofeng chuckled. "Alright, I’ll buy some bright and early tomorrow and stew it for you!"

Lu Hang looked up at his mother, who was dotting on Lin Nannan, and couldn’t help but ask, "Mom, I haven’t been home in so long. Why don’t you ask what I’d like to eat?"

Zhang Xiaofeng snorted and retorted, "Then why don’t you explain why your wife went to Nanshi in the first place? And you dare to ask me for food—I should be giving you a beating instead!"

Lin Nannan’s eyes gleamed, as if she wished they really would give Lu Hang a thrashing, leaving him speechless while the others bit back laughs.

"Exactly! If it weren’t for me, who knows when you’d have made it home!" Lin Nannan said proudly.

Lu Fang glanced at them and asked quietly, "So... Nan Nan really helped you?"

Lu Hang nodded. "It’s messy, but yes, Nan Nan was the game-changer."

"Only after I went did people from Jing City arrive and put the locals in line, which helped resolve things smoothly. If it were just me, it wouldn’t have gone so well...!" She left out the part about possible casualties, not wanting to scare them.

"But the credit is still yours!" Zhang Xiaofeng declared.

"Right, right," everyone agreed.

Lu Hang just smiled at Lin Nannan without saying a word...

After dinner, they chatted for a while. Knowing they were tired from the train ride, the family sent them off to rest.

Lin Nannan, however, had rested well on the train and was still full of energy. She dove right into the room, sorting through the gifts people had sent.

"Mom gave this, saying it's a reward sent to you. Not sure if it's from the people you saved or a bonus from the organization!" He handed over a bag, which Lin Nannan curiously took, muttering, "Doesn’t matter who sent it—as long as it’s clean, I’ll take it!"

She counted the money and found over five hundred, which surprised her.

"Not bad at all!" she boasted.

Lu Hang chuckled, "Don’t sleep on this stuff—it adds up!"

Lin Nannan's gaze landed on the small table in the room, which was crammed with stuff—seriously, a whole loot!
